Interactive Mobile Robotic Drinking Glasses

Francesco Mondada, François Rey, Michele Leidi

The central idea behind this attempt is to merge common objects and robotics to obtain a new type of interactive artefact, we call robjects. Robjects provide services to everyday life and can be controlled by the user in a very intuitive way. Robjects take ...

Towards Multi-Level Modeling of Self-Assembling Intelligent Micro-Systems

Jürgen Brugger, Alcherio Martinoli, Grégory Mermoud

We investigate and model the dynamics of two-dimensional stochastic self-assembly of intelligent micro-systems with minimal requirements in terms of sensing, actuation, and control. A microscopic agent-based model accounts for spatiality and serves as a ba ...

Bio-Inspired Self-Testing and Self-Organizing Bit Slice Processors

Joël Rossier

Inspired by the basic processes of molecular biology, our previous studies resulted in defining self-testing and self-organizing mechanisms made up of simple processes. The goal of our paper is to introduce a configurable molecule able to implement these b ...

Online learning of the body schema

Aude Billard, Eric Sauser, Micha Hersch

We present an algorithm enabling a humanoid robot to visually learn its body schema, knowing only the number of degrees of freedom in each limb. By “body schema” we mean the joint positions and orientations and thus the kinematic function. The learning is ...

Collaborative control in human wheelchair interaction reduces the need for dexterity in precise manoeuvres

Tom Edward Carlson

Distributing control appropriately between man and machine is particularly pertinent to assistive technology. We use shared control techniques to augment wheelchair users’ capabilities, enabling them to safely perform precise manoeuvres. In this paper, we ...

Toward Micro Wall-Climbing Robots Using Biomimetic Fibrillar Adhesives

Roland Siegwart, Fabien Tâche, Gilles Caprari

Climbing is a challenging task for autonomous mobile robots primarily due to requirements for agile locomotion, and high maneuverability as well as robust and efficient attachment and detachment. A novel miniature wall-climbing robot is proposed. The robot ...

Non-Invasive Brain-Actuated Control of a Mobile Robot

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Wulfram Gerstner

Recent experiments have shown the near possibility to use the brain electrical activity to directly control the movement of robotics or prosthetic devices. In this paper we report results with a portable non-invasive brain-computer interface that makes pos ...
